WHO DOES NOT WANT TO OWN SHARES IN THE NEXT APPLE OR TESLA?

low investment will translate into early retirement! Is the next Apple or Tesla hiding amongst the weed?
This industry is in such a state of constant turmoil and flux that the current and past environment may not
be relevant. For example, what if a company with a low share price and mounting losses is the beneficiary
of new markets opened up through legislation (edibles becoming legal in Oregon in June for example)?
